Please refer to your Declarations page to determine which entity pertains to you. By signing below, I hereby agree to the terms and conditions of this authorization agreement as follows: As the Named Insured, I hereby authorize the Company to electronically deduct monthly installments for payment of my insurance policy premiums, subsequent renewal down payment and monthly installments, and to initiate credit entries in the event of erroneous charges. I hereby authorize the Financial Institution indicated below to accept and post these transactions to my account, shown below.
This authorization will remain in effect until I provide written notice to the Company of its termination. I understand that, in the event I decide to terminate this payment method, I must advise the Company at least 3 business days prior to the installment due date. In the event that I do terminate it, I understand that I continue to be obligated to make the current payment due as outlined on the payment schedule, and my bill plan and premium may change, requiring a larger down payment and different installment payments.
I authorize the Company to adjust said transactions to reflect any premium changes and policy renewals. The Company agrees to notify me, at least 10 days in advance, in the event that the electronic transaction will be greater than the previous electronic transaction.
In the event that this enrollment occurs after the inception of the policy, we will debit your account the amount reflected on your current invoice, as long as we receive the authorization form at least 3 business days prior to the current due date.
In the event that my Financial Institution or account number changes, I acknowledge that 3 business days advance notice must be given to the Company before the changes take effect. I understand that I will be receiving a payment schedule shortly with the due dates, amounts of future withdrawals, and applicable fees. Upon receipt, I will retain the payment schedule for future reference since the Company will not send out monthly notifications.
I understand and agree that an installment fee will be charged and deducted with each monthly installment payment. I further understand that if my financial institution does not honor any payment, an NSF fee will be assessed to the balance due on my policy. For the specific amount of each fee, please contact your producer or call the Company at 1-888-888-0080. In addition, these fees will be reflected on the payment schedule that will be sent to you after the Company processes this request.
